A user underwent a 5000 graft hair transplant in Istanbul, which included 900 beard grafts, after previously using finasteride with limited success. The procedure cost £4500, including transport and aftercare in both Istanbul and the UK.

The conversation is about someone's hair regrowth after 1.5 months using natural treatments, specifically a dermaroller and a mix of peppermint, pumpkin seed, and rosemary oils. A reply congratulates them and encourages them to maintain their routine.

The conversation discusses whether finasteride would still be necessary if Verteporfin becomes a successful hair loss treatment. It also explores the sensitivity of transplanted hair to DHT and the potential for off-label use of Verteporfin post hair transplant.

The post discusses a theory that hair regrowth after transplant is due to the angiogenesis process (new blood vessels forming), not because the transplanted hair is unaffected by DHT. The responses highlight the established belief in 'donor dominance' (the importance of the hair's origin in transplantation) and skepticism about the new theory.

The conversation is about a person experiencing significant hair loss in the donor area after a hair transplant, with others suggesting it might be shock loss. The person is taking oral minoxidil and dutasteride to help with the issue.
